I have this monitor. I will say it has stunning visuals and the wide-screen aspect is nice. If you are looking for a curved monitor, this one may not be for you. The curve is very subtle and you will often forget it is there. Really nice tough, and the speakers are better than you'd think.

hey, if you want this, i will sell mine, on a discount... :(
Im in chicago so if you are around is should be super easy
i just unpacked it and used it for 3 days, it is too small for me, (i need more vertical space, widthwise it is awesome) i guess im going to dish out lots more for he 32+ version :(

gsync but not sure if you all that is worth it. if you are gaming, most games if not all now support setting the Hz of the game framerate, so in a 1050 you can easily match any frame rate of the monitor.
I have frame rate matched and no v-sync on and it rocks. I think the difference is only in extreme heavy load when the gsync can fetch forward the rates.
I could be wrong, I stopped caring once I matched the frequencies.

Hopefully someone can answer a few of my lame questions:
-Is this a good option for a console?
-Is there anything better I could get?
-Does free sync help console at all? Or is Game mode really the only thing that assists.
Edit: Thank you guys for answering, I really appreciate it! I may wait for a different model and get it on Amazon. Huge thanks again!

First question: depends, if it has the right connector u should be fine, also make sure the aspect ratio is supported by your console, else you will get black bars, (this was probs what the person commenting before me meant - main concern if your gonna buy this! **Beware before purchase**).
second question: depends where you live and (if there are good deals at nearby stores, or something like amazon)
third question: there is no need for a game mode or anything. As a monitor it does not need post processing thus eliminating majority of the latency, so compared to your tv, it should "theoretically" be better (theoretically being from everything I know, not from research - so yes from what I would say, but there is a small chance I can be wrong). freesync works differently to reduce latency than game mode, (game mode reduces the post processing on tv reducing some latency) not gonna get into freesync but I rlly don't think Freesync will help.

I understand your point and you're correct, Amazon is now about $30 more expensive for this monitor. That's great, now at least there is a valid reason to buy this here. There's no need to defend Massdrop though, I was in no way trying to insult Massdrop as a company. I think they have amazing deals all the time, but I stand by my original opinion and personally would choose to pay $30 more to have it Monday than save a few bucks and have to wait a couple weeks for it to ship. You also have to think about things like Amazon's customer service, returns and everything else that gives them an advantage if you can't beat them significantly on price. For me, $30 savings isn't worth choosing slower shipping, less mature service and no returns.

To ship this from the states to Australia would cost around $225 almost the same price as the monitor. We have covered this many times in many drops where big, heavy items are challenging to ship them internationally and especially to Australia. It is literally the most expensive place to ship to.
That is why we do not usually offer shipping at all on those types of items as once you tack on the shipping cost it kills the deal as you can obviously purchase this locally much cheaper than $309.99 + $225 shipping = $534.99.

Hello Everyone,
I want to thank @MrDynamicMan for letting us know about the pricing on Amazon. We checked the pricing the day before launch but it looks like Amazon dropped lower than us today. I was going to respond sooner but I wanted to get a hold of the vendor and get a better cost for the community first. We are now lower than Amazon by quite a bit.
Cheers.
